[Back from travel. I hope that some of our readers have been following the trail and travail of foreign correspondent and journalist Lara Logan, recently of '60 Minutes' fame. She is causing quite a consternation in the lamestream media who have targeted her for destruction since she has blown the whistle on the whole progressives' propaganda machine. Her interview on tonight's Mark Levin show was superb. gjr]

Todd, today’s spread between Trump and Obama at the same time is 3%, 49% approval vs 46%.
Obama started his fall from Inauguration Day 11% higher, so his total drop, so important to Punchy, was 67-46… 21%. Trump went from 56 to 49… or a 7% drop.
In other words, for every percentage point Trump has lost, Obama lost two.
Again, these are all Rasmussen numbers that Punchy doesn’t want to take seriously, but they are the only daily numbers we have.

Gregory at 4:26 – “…my own guess is that it will be when the Democratic Party can’t write the payroll or retirement checks that will be the financial death of the state.”
I wish that were so. My own take is that the sheep will be herded into an even further left (and downward) direction.
Once you go down that path, there’s no turning back or admitting you were wrong. The story will be something like “we weren’t bold enough” or “we didn’t have the financing we needed”.
Remember that the left’s darling economist, Paul Krugman loved to tell us that our country’s debt was no big deal as it hadn’t gotten as big as our annual GDP.
Now we’ve sailed right past that in spades and Krugman just moves the goalposts. Debt is now super-duper OK as long as it’s called an ‘investment’.
It works great until it doesn’t.
Paul keeps harping on the electoral failures of the Rs in CA as if it’s some kind of track race between equal contestants against the clock. The voters in CA are increasingly for the ‘free stuff’ message. And the Dems provide it. The Dems want power and they have it. The fact that they have no idea what to do with it seems beside the point. For now.

“Fish, do you deny yes or no that Trump is an Evil Angel ” Paul – If I went to a party and I met Trump, I’m sure after a while I’d tell him to go soak his head in a barrel. I didn’t vote for an angel – I voted for some one who had a chance to keep Hillary away from the White House. We conservatives are not like leftists in that we do not look to our elected leaders to be some kind of super-human or perfect or our saviors. Trump was elected to administer the laws of our nation and he’s doing a fair better job than anyone else that ran for that position. Yes – he’s an adulterer. So was Ike and Kennedy and the sainted Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
So are lots of folks you happily sign up to play at venues in Nevada County.
You don’t like his politics. So what? You went out on a limb to crow that he had no chance to ever get elected.
It turned out you were wrong. You have repeatedly been wrong about Trump and at some point I would have thought you would be reflective enough to stop and admit you aren’t savvy as to what is going on.
But here I will have to admit I was wrong. It turns out you are far more mule-headed than I thought.

Food for thought: “When everybody is a white nationalist, nobody is.” —Victor Davis Hanson
For the record: “It is difficult to distinguish [Julian] Assange or WikiLeaks from The Washington Post.” —Washington Post editorial in 2011 … and still true today
Observations: “It’s amazing how the cable TV Left has totally moved past the Barr summary letter to believe once again that the Mueller report, or at least whatever parts of it might be redacted, contains a torpedo for Trump.” —Rich Lowry
Vilifying Barr, part I: “AG Barr admitted he had no evidence to support his claim that spying on the Trump campaign ‘did occur.’ AG Barr must retract his statement immediately or produce specific evidence to back it up. Perpetuating conspiracy theories is beneath the office of the Attorney General.” —Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
Vilifying Barr, part II: “The chief law-enforcement officer of our country is going off the rails. … He is the attorney general of the United States of America, not the attorney general of Donald Trump.” —House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
Vilifying Barr, part III: “I’m amazed that the attorney general would make that kind of statement. I think it is in many ways disrespectful to the men and women who work in the Justice Department. And it shows, I think, either a lack of understanding or willful ignorance of what goes into a counterintelligence investigation.” —Sen. Mark Warner
Vilifying Barr, part IV: “I was very disappointed in what Attorney General Barr said. … He acted more like a personal lawyer for Donald Trump … rather than the attorney general.” —Ex-CIA Director John Brennan
Vilifying Barr, part V: “I thought [William Barr’s statement on spying] was both stunning and scary. I was amazed at that and rather disappointed that the attorney general would say such a thing.” —Ex-DNI chief James Clapper
Vilifying Barr, part VI: “Barr feels the need to curry favor with Trump and I don’t understand why a man of his standing and reputation would feel the need to kowtow to the president in such a way.” —MSNBC’s Cynthia Alksne
Braying Jenny: “Another telltale sign of dictators is they corrupt the people around them, so that people like Bill Barr, who had a reputation coming in as kind of a lawyer’s lawyer, is now in the position of really shading and pandering, and I would even say misrepresenting the facts. So, he is not acting as the attorney general, but he’s acting as the spinmaster for the president. … So when somebody like Trump gets people who have some competency, but he then corrupts them, he gets them to lie, to mismanage, or to really sort of sow chaos … then you have this perpetual cloud of confusion and misunderstanding.” —Jennifer Rubin
And last… “Eric Swalwell Campaign slogan: I see you. I hear you. I’m for you. I AM you. But if you don’t turn in your guns I’ll nuke you.” —Kyle Kashuv
